The degree of distilled liquor is not high, because the process level is not up to it, and the sealing of the distillation equipment used is too poor, even after four distillations, the alcohol content is only about 50 degrees.

Even so, Cheng Yanjin, who drank two jars of water wine and half a bag of spirits, was already drunk and unconscious.

The stupid big Mai Tiedan was no better, and he drank an unlimited amount of water and wine, and it had already rolled under the table and snored loudly.

Lai Cheng and Xu Shiyun were still sober, and hurriedly went out to greet the people of the Cheng family to send the drunk two back to the room, and they also simply washed up and rested separately.

Although Cheng Yanjin is usually a good drinker, he has always been aware of it, and he rarely gets drunk. There is also a reason why I let go of drinking today.

Cheng Lou, Cheng Yanjin's father, turned out to be the Great Zhongzheng of Jeju in Northern Qi.

Dazhong is the product of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, is an important system of election officials during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi adopted the opinions of Chen Qun, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and Sima Yi, who was a high-ranking and powerful person at that time, and ordered him to formulate the election system in the first year of the early Huang Dynasty.

"Taiping Yulan" volume 256 quotes "Emperor Xuan of the Jin Dynasty" has that Sima Yi removed the nine products and the state placed the Dazhongzheng discussion: "The case of the nine products, Zhu Zhongzheng failed to anticipate the talents, thinking that the nine systems could be removed, and the state placed the Dazhongzheng." And the "General Dictionary" volume 32 has: "Emperor Xuan of the Jin Dynasty added a large zhongzheng, so there are large and small zhongzheng, and its employment is very heavy." ”

This system gradually became complete in the Western Jin Dynasty, and changed during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. From the beginning of Cao Wei to the opening of the imperial examination system during the reign of Emperor Kaihuang of Sui, this period lasted for about 400 years.

The nine-product Zhongzheng system generally refers to the election of a person from each state and county, and the elected Dazhongzheng must be an official who serves in the central government and has a high moral reputation, and then sets up a small Zhongzheng under the Dazhongzheng.

The so-called Zhongzheng is the official title of the evaluation talent.

After the formation of large and small middle schools, the central government distributes a kind of talent survey form, in which the talents are divided into nine grades, upper, upper, upper, middle, lower.

This table is known to all localities, large and small, and the exiles from all over the country are registered on it, whether they are published or not, and the list details the annual records, and the grades are respectively numbered, and comments are added.

After reviewing and submitting the form to the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Officials will carry out the promotion and dismissal of officials.

This system gave an objective criterion for the selection of officials at that time, which was actually still based on local public opinion and public opinion, and retained the will of the Han Dynasty's township election.

"Jin Shu Liu Yi Biography": "Those who place the capital of the state will take the state to discuss it, and the salty place will be subordinated, and the similarities and differences of the town will be discussed in one word." "Preface to the Biography of Song Shu Enxing": "The state capital and county are positive, and people are judged by talent." Chen Yuan's "Historical Examples" volume 6: "After the Wei and Jin dynasties, all the states placed Dazhongzheng to screen the flow of goods. Sui Shi avoided it, changed it to the state capital, and went to the name of Zhongzheng. ”

On the one hand, the implementation of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system solved the problem of no standard for the selection of officials, and clarified the rule of officials for a time at that time. On the other hand, it also relieved the tension between the Cao Wei royal family and the family, and laid a solid foundation for the unification of the whole country during the Wei and Jin dynasties.

The Jiupin Zhongzheng system inherited the two Han Dynasty inspection system, and the imperial examination of the Sui and Tang dynasties, which occupies a very important position in the history of China's ancient Chinese political system, and is one of the three major official election systems in China's feudal society.

However, the Jiupin Zhongzheng system has always represented the political interests of the family gatekeepers, and all the officials who have been elected are the children of the family. Therefore, there is also "friends with selfishness, and the back is tending to China", which is a family with no poor family and no power at the lower level.

With Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian dominating the world, the contradiction between the Yang family and the family gate valve became increasingly prominent, and finally in the first month of the third year of the emperor's reign, Emperor Wen of Sui issued an edict to promote "virtuous and virtuous". The imperial examination system, which lasted for more than 1,000 years, was launched.

In this way, the official position of Dazhongzheng was abolished.

And the original foundation of the Cheng family is that there are people in the court who are good at doing things, and it is several generations of high-ranking officials who have supported such a large foundation of the Cheng family.

Not to mention expanding the ancestral business, even if the existing things can be kept, it depends on the faces of others.

Cheng Lou is almost fifty years old, and he has been a big zhongzheng for most of his life, and he can't get rid of the original routine at all, and it is basically impossible to be recruited as an official by the Great Sui again.

Cheng Lou's only son, Cheng Yanjin, is also a prodigal son who doesn't like pen and ink, even if he knows hundreds of characters, he has no chance with the imperial examination.

If the pie is dropped today, Cheng Biting Jin has become a friend with him, even if he hugs the thigh of the former celebrity Rong Guogong of the Great Sui Emperor, as long as he works well, he will not worry about not having a good future in the future, such a good thing, how can Cheng Biting Jin not be happy?

I'm also very happy to come to the whole thing, although I don't know if Cheng Biting Jin in front of him will only have a three-plate axe as said in the romance, but it doesn't look too weak.

Even if Cheng Bites Jin's martial arts are average, with his invincible lucky aura from nature, it is worth coming to pay homage to him.

This time, the two became brothers, which is a good thing that everyone is happy about.

……

I was in a good mood, I drank a lot of wine, and when I woke up, it was already dawn again, and I slept almost a full night.

Lai Zhen shook his head helplessly, this wine is really a steel knife, and the good habit of going to bed early and getting up early to practice martial arts diligently was ruined by drunkenness.

After getting dressed, he picked up the kettle and hurriedly rinsed his mouth with cold water, and opened the door, only to find that Xu Shichang was already waiting outside the house.

"Brother Shiyun got up so early!" Come and say hello awkwardly.

Xu Shiyun smiled slightly, arched his hand and said: "The son has not woken up from a hangover, and Shiyun, as the son's long-term follower, must be vigilant." ”

Came to praise secretly in his heart: This Xu Shiyun is really different, he is indeed a rare talent, although he has not yet shown his talent for commanding troops and fighting, but his sober mind at this moment has completely surpassed his current age.

Returning the salute, he said sincerely: "Come to the cup, it's hard work." ”

Xu Shiyun glanced left and right, and said softly: "Does the son want to stay here to subdue the Cheng family?" ”

Lai Zhen shook his head: "The time is not right, just build a good relationship for the time being." After two days, you and I set off to Licheng. ”

Xu Shiyun nodded and said no more. Sometimes, smart people don't have to say it too clearly, and they know what to do next with just a few clicks.

Xu Shiyun is undoubtedly an extremely smart person.

As soon as the two of them came out of the yard, they saw Cheng Yanjin coming over with a happy face from a distance, and shouted as they walked: "Brother Lai has finally woken up, let me old Cheng Haosheng look forward to it." ”
